Anyone who has ever played Scrabble with a loved one will know just how dangerous it can be if someone has a nice seven letter word and the other a collection of vowels that might only make a word used by a kid in a playground! Well that's what happens here when the couple are having a game and he is stuck. She's bored waiting, so goes and hoovers their home whilst he puts the television on and watches some of his favourite pastime - sawing! Yes, that's using a saw to cut through things. Not surprisingly, it has a rather soporific effect on him (and their dog) and when he awakes after a few idyllic dreams of days gone by, he takes a quick squint at her letters but is caught. She throws a bit of a paddy and he has to find a way to placate her. Meantime, the television announces that there's a nuclear war ongoing and that they mustn't smoke! It's a simple animation with bulging bodily features and a slightly surreal slant to it before a denouement that I did rather enjoy.
